FRISCO, Texas - The Dallas Cowboys are kicking off minicamp on Tuesday after several days of voluntary organized team activities.

Micah Parsons at Minicamp

All eyes are expected to be on Micah Parsons this year.

The All-Pro pass rusher is in the final year of his rookie contract and did not show up for organized team activities or OTAs.

While the OTAs are voluntary, the three-day minicamp is not.

All players had their physicals on Monday, including Parsons.

Last week, he shared on social media that he was planning to attend.

Parsons said he hasn’t missed camp in four years and would be at The Star in Frisco this week, even though he doesn’t have a new contract.

Parsons and Schottenheimer

Parsons shared a glimpse of his relationship with new head coach Brian Schottenheimer during a prank call for a TikTok video where someone randomly calls their friends to wish them a good night.

However, the two briefly talked about the business side of things.

"Hey man, look. I know this is weird for everybody, man. But you’re handling everything the right way. This whole thing is gonna get worked out. And again, I’m thrilled to see where we take this thing. We’re building something special and you’re going to be a huge part of it, bro," Schottenheimer said.

"Hell ya, Schotty!" Parsons replied.

The video got more than a million views.
